of betrayal

3:11 AM - Thursday, October 11, 2007

People always say you never know how to cherish something until you lose it. In my opinion, people do not cherish something until they throw it away. When we cherish something or even someone, we will do everything within our abilities to protect it such that we won't lose it, and the fact that we lost it is because we did not put in effort to take care of it. What I am trying to say is that a relationship, doesn't matter boy-girl, boy-boy, girl-girl,etc, is very fragile and without proper maintainence, it'll probably just go missing without us noticing it. I would not do or say anything that I think will inflict negative pressure on a friendship, especially one which I cherish a lot, but yesterday one of my good friends did exactly that to me.

I usually present myself to others as a jovial and fun-loving person that cracks jokes about others and doesn't mind others making fun of me. Once in a while, I could sense that this was dangerous. People think that jokers and clowns are always happy, that they do not have any worries or any secrets that they hope to keep in the dark. One of the elements in life I cherish the most is friendship. And the betrayal of your friend is the worse and most effective way if you want to spoil a friendship. Yesterday, I had the trust I gave a friend betrayed, and despite it being regarded a small matter, I was really disappointed and hurt by it. No doubt everything can be simmered down by a "just joking only", but how many time can we joke about things? There will come a time when a friends revelas something to you that he wants to be kept secret, and is it considered a joke to purposely let it out just to see if that frien can take this joke? I initially had a lot to say but right now my mind is in a blank. So heck it!

But because forgiving takes much lesser effort and feels much better than hating someone, I have decided to forgive! But I hate it when you forgive a person and he or she still keep on apologizing because that makes me feel bad and I don't think the person who was in the wrong has the right to make me feel bad. So all is well now... peace!
